  • Our Offensive Line

    It was pretty offensive. I love that we got the win. And I wasn't surprised that we struggled to run the ball. But I was shocked that the pass protection looked as bad as it did.

    I didn't see most of the game, but the Eagles generally get after the QB alot.

      What shocked me was Clifton and Taush's shakiness in pass protection. Those two are usually real solid.

        It was bad. That has to get fixed. Those guys seem poised to make that next step but they didn't show it at all today.

        I'm hoping we see some improvement every week starting next week against the Giants.

          I don't think it would take much for the OL to improve from today's performance.

            I shouldn't even respond to this post but I will. ENJOY THE WIN SCOTT! We can bring these topics up later in the week.

              The Eagles pose a real challenge for pass protection. Their DC is one of the best at bringing the heat. Their defensive line and scheme played a big part in it today, but the GB line is also to blame.

              Clifton and Tauscher both got beat regularly, more than expected, which is disturbing. Possibly more disturbing is that they should have been exploitable in the run game, and that didn't happen.

                The Eagles really have our number. Let's see hwo they do next week. I don't want to have to win games with two muffed punts and near perfect defense every week. I know that is not going to happen. We need some offense even if it's just average. What we have now is really bad. That has to improve.

                  The crowd was very loud today

                  It was interesting for Larry Mac to not that in the fourth quarter there were a few running calls that went with pulling OL like the Sherman years as opposed to the ZBS cut blocking. Larry Mac indicated it's his hunch we may see a bit more of that going forward.

                    And I was sure that once we started cut blocking everything would be fine.

                      Is it possible that we are already doubting the ZBS one game into the post-Jagz era? Interesting...

                        We haven't run the Denver/ATL ZBS all year. The closest we come to it is kind of a hybrid where the lineman turn their bodies slightly and move in concert. The Jags-ZBS has been junked unless they are gonna put it in later during the year.

                        I hope we get some kinda system that is successful. What we're doin' now is not going great guns or anything.

                          This would be bittersweet justice for me. Problem - these guys are too small to run a pulling OL successfully.

                            Right, we just gave up on it. It looks like a whole different style. They stopped cutting all together. I am very disappointed to see them just completely change like that. I am definilty worried about the run game. If they were going to do the same thing as last year but do it better, I'd be OK. If they are starting all over and Philbin is the mastermind, I'm scared shitless.
